Unable to Download videos

[ihimanshur]

Hi @cranci1,

First of all, thank you for your amazing work on the Osmium project — it’s been really helpful!

I’ve been using Osmium successfully to download videos, and everything was working perfectly up until around October 20, 2024.

However, recently I noticed that video downloads have suddenly stopped working. I haven’t changed anything on my end, so I’m wondering if something has changed in the backend or if there are updates needed to the Cobalt API integration.

Could you please suggest what I should do?

Appreciate any help or guidance you can provide.

Thanks again!

@ihimanshur This should be fixed let me know! To install it check the action on the repo.

Thanks for the update! I saw the action in the repo, but I couldn’t quite understand the installation process. Could you please guide me through it?

You can sideload this version of Osmium. It should fix the issues hopefully:

Whenever I run the app, it shows an error saying 'Invoice URL'. Please guide me

Ohhhh i see the issue.

You need to set the API url in Settings -> Instance -> API Url. You can either host your self on the mac: https://github.com/imputnet/cobalt/blob/main/docs/run-an-instance.md or find an open API online (i haven't found one yet). Then set the API url in the settings page.
